lyrics

But when I’m gone

We tend to take our lives too much for granted
The thought that things will change we love to push away
We just hang on to what we’ve got and don’t believe we miss a lot
Prefer to think that all that came will always stay

I know that life will push us forward into the future
And all will change no matter what we think or feel
So now I’m moving on and fear that all I’ve got will disappear
And what I didn’t want to happen becomes real

But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in

And there will come a time life stops to be easy
When the struggle to keep sane will take up all our time
We can’t remember how it felt and how our memories will melt
Keep up the hope our thoughts will never stop to rhyme

But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in

But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in
